In recent versions of lighttpd the config files have changed so much 
that the upgrade process cannot fix them. This is why there is a warning 
generated. If you are using lighttpd you will have to use the current 
config files and adapt them to your needs.

Upgrade has detected files on 7.5.1 which appear not to be present on 
7.5.3. It suggests to remove them from the new installation as they 
appear not to be used anymore. Upgrade was built about 15 years ago and 
at that time noone could know what modifications would be made to the 
various packages.

post_upgrade would be the tool to use to overcome most of the warnings 
above. Unfortunately it was never considered important enough to build 
and use it.

OK you have seen the warnings emitted by upgrade, now it is your turn to 
evaluate if they are important enough for you to act.

Did you follow the suggestions in the upgrade process?
I think you should be OK with 7.5.3 if you follow the information given 
by upgrade.
